I have got used to use RepetierHost -program for printing. I like mostly of its usability and printing preview. I would like to use slic3r- slicer because I like its using logic and how I can save different preferences for different objects, filaments nozzles etc. There is allso cura engine -slicer inside repetier but it's usability is a little bit scrappy I think. Cura -program (15.04) give nice results but I wouldnt like to save the g-code end then print with repetier.
But what is the logic of the vertical shells? If we slice 2mm wide object with 0,4mm nozzle shouldnt we have 5 shell layers (with at least 3 layers per side)? Here we have 2mm wide object that allso gets wider with 1mm steps. Pictures: 1.Slic3r 2.Cura engine and 3. Cura -program.

Cura engine and Cura program results are pretty much similar as you could expect. But Slic3r does only 4 layers/2mm, 5 layers/3mm and 7 layers/4mm and starts to make infill in 5mm.
Curas do 5 layers /2mm and starts infill in 3mm. For some reason in left side there is only 2 layers. edit: curas have 3. layer in left side inside, but it just gets very thin until ends..
Slic3rs infill is allso not dense and 5 layer in 3mm wide object is very not dense. Is Slic3er trying to extruse more material per layer or what?
